  Recovery of DNG issue: I have photos stored on an external hard drive which have previously been imported into Lightroom and converted to DNG.  The laptop on which I was running Lightroom died and I had to replace the hard drive and rebuild the computer.  In the process of my Lightroom program and catalog related to these images have been lost.  When I re-associate these photos with my new installation of Lightroom and a new catalogue is there a way to retrieve the keywords or other changes or metadata catalogue Mountaga?  Is any of this information embedded with the imge DNG file or was it only in the cataloght lost on my failing hard drive? I re-import just as if it were new images with no prior treatment of Lightroom?

  By default, LR saves all changes in the catalog, and that applies to any type of file.

  Optionally, you can save changes to the file as well, for raw files owners, this will create a xmp file - for DNG that changes are going to be cooked in the file, without additional xmp file.

  But it does not default. Go to the catalog and parameters under the control of metadata automatically save changes to XMP.

  Unless you do this, the changes are saved only in the catalog.

  Hope this makes things clearer.

• In iMovie 9.0.4 How can I move events to an external hard drive?

  Note: I am writing this issue on behalf of my daughter, who is an old iMac running 10.6.8.   His version of iMovie is 9.0.4.

  She has about 50 GB, events which occupies about one-third of its HD.  There is an external hard drive with lots of available storage.

  How to pass these events to the external hard drive?

  Thank you

  Owen

  For a long time I used iMovie 9 but this link to the help info gives instructions: http://help.apple.com/imovie/#mov3ac6d42c

  Its probably safer to copy rather than move events (unless you already have a backup) just in case something goes wrong.

  Hello ShamedMonkey,

  Thank you for your message.  The problem you are having is because of differences in formatting between PC and Mac.  You can, however, transfer your files between the two.  I will set out what must be done under and limitations of each.
  First, you will need to format the drive on your PC.  When you format the PC, you can format it in FAT32 or NTFS.
  (You mentioned that you do not see the drive in the computer) To format drive:
  Click 'Start' > right click on 'Computer' > select 'manage '.
  Click on "disk management".
  In the right pane, you should see your drive > you can then do a right click and 'format '.
  FAT32:
  This format will allow you to easily transfer files between the two.  This format becomes problematic when you transfer files more than 4 G.  There is a limit of 4 GB in FAT32, etc. of many movies are bigger than that and cannot be transferred using this format.
  NTFS
  This format has no size limitation, however, in its normal state it will be 'Read only' on Mac.  If you will not be able to transfer all the data itself.  While doing some research on the web, it seems that you can use a program called MacFuse on your Mac to change to NTFS files.  I have not confirmed this, but you can give it a try.  If this program works as planned, it would be the way to go.
  Please let us know if it did or did not solve your problem.
  See you soon

• How to transfer data from laptop to external hard drive?

  How to transfer data from laptop to external hard drive?

  my model is vgn-cr323.

  Thanks in advance

  Let me provide you with General information on how you can transfer data from your computer to an external drive.

  To transfer the data, plug the USB cable into the correct port. Usually, your computer will know that he has a new disc attached and a pop box up will warn you. It will scan to determine what to do with the new connection and your computer will assign a drive letter (for example, drive G: and so on.) This will allow you to transfer data to the external hard drive just like you would move files on your internal hard drive.

  Once you have the USB cable plugged into your computers port (and the other end plugs into the external drive) you can now start to save files you want on the external hard drive.

  Open the item (s) or folder (s) you want to transfer or save on your external hard drive. There are two ways to save external hard disk 1). If you have only one or two things to save, you can open each item, click on file / record under... and choose the letter/drive (for example, drive G corresponding to that of your external hard drive, click Save.) This he recorded on the external hard drive.

• How can I get WMP to find all my songs that are stored on an external hard drive?

  I bought an external hard drive to store music for my product and WMP adds only about 30% of the songs to the Player library.  Some are wma and some are in mp3 format (added to the library and which must still be added).  I tried to uncheck Read-only after reading some responses online, but who did not stick and nothing changed.  How can I get WMP to find all my songs?

  I couldn't change them to read-only.  Fortunately after the computer restarts several times it work itself.

  Thanks for all the tips!

• How to recover my data stored on an external hard drive now that I use a MAC

  I bought a Sea Gate 2 to external hard drive for my Dell PC a few months back.  It saved my whole computer and check everyday for any extra stuff back up.  Recently, I switched to a MAC, and in a prime time could not open at all.  However, I called door seafarers and they helped me set up my Mac so now I can open it as a hard drive.  However I still do not see the material recorded from my PC.  I was told that Windows has somehow compress the files when it is saved as a backup, and this is perhaps why I can't see my old files.  If anyone has any ideas I'd love to help.

  It's really a question you need to ask the experts of Mac (choose the forum that pertains to your variety of Mac).  However, the information that anyone who will help you needs to know is what software created backup files.  In other words, what "saved" your computer?

  For example, you use Windows Ntbackup?  You use software provided with the Seagate drive?

  If you can open the Seagate on Mac disk, configure your Mac to be able to show file name extensions (the letters after the dot): http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?path=Mac/10.4/en/mh825.html and register this file extension to your aid application.

• How can I access the old (outlook 2003) emails stored on an external hard drive

  When I try to open outlook 2003 I get the message "the operating system is not currently configured to run this application

  When I try to open outlook 2003 I get the message "the operating system is not currently configured to run this application

  If Outlook 2003 itself (connected application) does not work?

  Office 2003 (which would be included in Outlook 2003) is compatible with Windows 7 (the forum in which you posted).

  If you have Outlook 2003 is installed - it should be able to open unless the installation is corrupted in some way - in this case, you need to re - install and update the application from the original installation and the Internet media (in that order).

  Once you are able to open Outlook 2003 once again, then you can try to open what I understand, it is an external hard drive PST (granted the file PST is NOT in a read-only State and is compatible with Outlook 2003 and is not corrupt anything either.)

• Unable to access video clips of the external hard drive

  I've been using PE9 for six to nine months.  My normal workflow was to create a separate project on a 500g external hard drive. This file contains all the video clips (.mov files) and the Project.PREL file.

  This great worked until recently.  I can bring is no longer the .mov clips in the project schedule or sceenline from the hard disk.  By using the command 'Get Meda' a 'unfinished' file is downloaded, and when I try to drag the clip to the timeline, the program asks me where the file. Something has changed - and I don't know what or how to fix it.

  

  The image above comes from a project where I'm having this problem.  The clips that have images in them are downloaded from my portable hard drive.  Others come from my external hard drive - and those are the ones that the program cannot "locate."  That's what I'm trying to figure out how to fix it.  Yet once, this suddenly started happening - so somehow I changed something, I think.

  The same clips can be imported when they are stored on my hard drive.  When I try to import them when stored on a video card, the video importer PRE opens and I can bring them to the program in this way.  However, these are not viable alternatives for me.

  So what has changed, I can't determine.  Is there a setting, codec or something that I can study that this would cause? As I said, this just started happening?

  In addition, some previous projects to open correctly and some may not find the files - even if they are all stored on the same HD 500 g.

  Help, please.

  This ARTICLE will give you some general tips on editing of external HARD drives.

  My first guess would be just like John T - outside drive letter has changed in the operating system.

  Good luck

  Drag the Aperture library on an external drive, and double click it to open it in Aperture.

  Just make sure that the disc external hard has a file system compatible - Mac OS extended (journaled) and use a drive mounted locally, not a NAS:

  Flip4mac - need version payware intermediary that allows you to convert.  Use with Quicktime player.  Flip4Mac - http://dynamic.telestream.net/downloads/download-flip4macwmv.asp?prodid=flip4mac wmv - the free version will allow QuickTime play, but not to convert Windows Media files.

  After installation, a new component of Flip4Mac will appear in system preferences.  Make sure that you set the boxes to make sure that it will play WMV files in Quicktime format.

  VLC - not really a converter but will do a bit on the menu export.  Can be slow to be converted and there will be a learning curve.

  Explore online converters when you download a file in a format and download in another.

  I do not know if your computer can run Audion 3 I think I used to use it to convert WMA.

• The data stored on the external hard drive recovery

  Hello

  Recently, my PC got corrupted and told me to save my data on an external hard drive before doing a reformat on my PC. In fact, all my data was saved when I update. A few months ago, in may 2014, I backed up my data in the drive C under the section 'My Document ' and also registered in my external hard drive as a backup. Thus, in June, July & the first 2 weeks of August 2014, I updated some data and stored in the 'My documents' file in the C drive. My PC got corrupted last week and told me to do a reformat as a last resort. Before that, I saved all my data (especially my Word & Excel) for my external hard drive to the file 'My Document '. After that the reformatting was made, I downloaded all required applications and try to remove my Excel file, which has the external hard drive, but the data were NOT the updated file, but the file that has been saved 3 months ago!

  So, how can I recover my file up to date which was recorded August 12, 2014, supposedly on my external hard drive, or could it be hidden somewhere in the "C drive"?

  Help, please!

  Thank you!

  Kind regards

• How can I move my images on external hard drive?

  I need to create a space on my portable hard drive. How can I move my images on an external hard drive? Terrified, I'll losse them or get the dreaded...? Help!

  There is no need to be terriefied. The "dreaded"? "isn't so bad.

  The best way to go about this is:

  (1) in Lr / Grid View / files Panel (left side) put all your image files under folder of one of their parents. If this is already the case, you can skip this step. To do this, just create a new folder and name it descriptive. Then drag-and - drop your image in addition to this newly created folder files. This will make all the image files subfolders in the folder of one of their parents.

  (2) close Lr. In the Finder of Mac / Win Explorer to move the newly created parent folder (wil together all its subfolders) on external hard drive you. This is important: Do not rename the files or change the structure of folder at this point.

  (3) Lr re - open. In the files Panel, you will see the | "dreaded" "? -don't panic! Right click (i.e. click the right - as opposed to left - button you rmouse) parent folder he that you created earlier and now shows the question mark and select . Navigate to the location of the folder on your external drive parent and select it. LR will find all subfolders on its own.

  That's all there is to it.
